Watch Chris Christie Interview With Megyn Kelly On ‘The Kelly File’

Watch full Chris Christie interview from “The Kelly File” with Fox News host, Megyn Kelly. In the interview, the NJ governor reacts to an investigative report clearing him of wrongdoing in the Bridgegate scandal.

Gov. Chris Christie told Megyn Kelly he “also always knew that this is where it would end because I knew from the beginning I didn’t have anything to do with this and didn’t know anything about it”

But Christie, like many voters, is not ready to give himself a pass. He again took ultimate responsibility for the lane closures in the Ft. Lee area, which broke when Democrats began panicking over poll numbers showing the New Jersey governor — just off his big reelection victory — edging top contender Hillary Rodham Clinton in a head-to-head matchup for president in 2016.

“And that’s, you know, consolation I think for me and for others who support me but it doesn’t mean that I’m not responsible and ultimately you know I’m responsible for what people do on my watch.”

Christie also addressed whether or not he has “too much baggage now to run for president,” as Megyn Kelly asked.

“That will be for other people to judge. There’s no baggage here because I didn’t do anything. And that eventually will wash out as it’s starting to already. Because what the American people and the people of New Jersey really care about is ‘did you do it?’ And when they find out you didn’t, I think what you’re going to find is that they’ll just say ‘okay.'”
